A young British girl born and reared in India loses her neglectful parents in an earthquake. She is returned to England to live at her uncle's castle. Her uncle is very distant due to the loss of his wife ten years before. Neglected once again, she begins exploring the estate and discovers a garden that has been locked and neglected. Aided by one of the servants' boys, she begins restoring the garden, and eventually discovers some other secrets of the manor.
I remember reading the book by Frances Hodgson Burnett as a kid and loving it. This movie version is very well done and perfect at this time of year. You will want to grow things, you know, in dirt.
